2 Corinthians 3:15 Meaning and Commentary

2 Corinthians 3:15

But even unto this day, when Moses is read
These words are an explanation of the former, and show that by the Old Testament is designed, more especially, Moses, or the writings of Moses; which were frequently read, and preached upon in the Jewish synagogues; see ( Acts 13:15 ) ( 15:21 ) and that by "the veil untaken away", is meant,

the veil upon their heart;
that is, the veil of blindness, ignorance of Christ, and the Gospel; of the prophecies of the Old Testament, and even of the law itself, its nature, use, and end; preferring the traditions of their fathers, before the written law of Moses.

2 Corinthians 3:15 In-Context

13 et non sicut Moses ponebat velamen super faciem suam ut non intenderent filii Israhel in faciem eius quod evacuatur
14 sed obtusi sunt sensus eorum usque in hodiernum enim diem id ipsum velamen in lectione veteris testamenti manet non revelatum quoniam in Christo evacuatur
15 sed usque in hodiernum diem cum legitur Moses velamen est positum super cor eorum
16 cum autem conversus fuerit ad Deum aufertur velamen
17 Dominus autem Spiritus est ubi autem Spiritus Domini ibi libertas
